Roughly 150 people attended an LGBT Pride parade on Saturday in Namibia's capital Windhoek. According to the AFP, the activists marched down the city's main thoroughfare, Independence Avenue, calling on lawmakers to advance legal protections for the African nation's LGBT community. In what is believed to be Windhock's first gay pride march, demonstrators waved rainbow flags and chanted “we are one.” Police escorted the activists as they marched, but no incidents were reported with the exception of an occasional derogatory comment.
